If i had a penny for every time Aabria has run a TTRPG game for Brennan in a magical school where he plays a dark wizard with an unpronounceable name, I'd have two pennies which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
I wonder how Kelmp would react to Merhermbler. I see a best friendship in the works
Evan would probably freak out and be like "oh no this is my future"
neither of them are wizards i dont think
I know of at least 3 TTRPG's where Aabria runs a magic school game. It's kind of like the DM version of a typecast or something lol
Technically three now lol
The most realistic/relatable part of this is when they spent a good 5 minutes agonizing over the best way to phrase an email to their professor only to immediately get a casual two-word, information-free phatic response.
TOO REAL
I have been on both sides of this and it is awesome and awful
I recently received an email that literally said "polite stuff", a single sentence with a request, then "more polite stuff". My email to her was several hundred words.
@@duckdudette I'm sorry, but if I got that email I would burn the school. That's so disrespectful. Like, I know you don't, but at least pretend to care that another human being is gonna recieve that email.
@@trinifernandez8870 You're one of them real sensitive types. Maybe people don't have enough time to waste on niceties that get ignored anyway?
And here I thought Brennan could never come up with another name as funny as "Kelmp"
I will definitely be adding "merhermbler" to my names list lol
I mean... it's the same dude that came up with Fethrethriel and looked straight into the camera to proclaim that "Bim" was short for "Bimothy" x)
Don't ever tell Brennan he's made a mistake in D&D: he will only take that as a challenge to double down 😂
Why?
Why?
Why would you think that?
@@IceMetalPunk and then tell you to get in the comments
"There is only one bear in this campus" Aabria, you can't go promising a Daddy ending when there's only one bear in campus.
They would probably have to be king bear.
There can be only one literal bear and still be plenty of people who could be in the category of “bear”.
Strixhaven as a magic the gathering set does have two cards that are bears that are professors, one’s just a generic professor of Zoomancy the other is actually a named character named Ruxa
@@mwil2495 King Daddy Werebear?
There's only one bear now cause Evan Kelmp likely killed the other bears
Brennen so firmly embodies, "There is no vanity in comedy" I just love how he is never afraid to be weird or gross or look insane.
Not surprising from Brennan "There is no corner of my heart I would not turn over for 5 points" Mulligan. He's not scared of using literally any part of himself to make a bit land, it's inspired.
He’s a feral king.
Some of us D&D nerds are becons of perfection, glowing like a lighthouse of purity.
Brenan represents the rest of us. The sweaty troglodytes. The ever hungry trolls. The pasty undead. We can pretend to be a brilliant lord or a lady all we want but we aren't at home roleplaying until we snort wipe our snotty nose on our arm as a 12 year old.
@@kredonystus7768 He hungers. Hungers for almonds, ethics, and storytelling. We also hunger and we too wish for a second mouth so we may speak and eat nachos simultaneously..
How about Becca's ".....Snnnnaaaarrrlllllll Eaterrrrrrrr"
Muhurmblur actively seeking death making all the enemies super uncomfortable is probably the biggest DnD power move I’ve ever seen.
Yeah, having that vibe makes friends uncomfortable too (at least in my experience)
It's on par with Jaiden weaponizing Depression
@@TheQuashingoftheTubI have no idea what you are referencing, but the character(?) sounds like something I'd be interested in. Can you tell me what you mean by that?
@@merri_spiderly6017TH-camrs JaidenAnimations, Ranboo, and Alpharad played a oneshot dmed by Charlie Slimecicle of Just Roll With It fame. In it, JaidenAnimation's character, a black dragonborn warlock named Zoot pretends to be the BBEG's deceased wife and lures him in. The BBEG breaks down crying in Zoot's arms and then Jaiden straight up uses her Breath Attack on him point blank
"Just because it feels good doesn't mean it's sex" - Undead scientist man
Considering events in the current Dimension 20 campaign this is especially funny
Debatable

@@diegomorones-castillo2225 thats just backwards sex
Bro, Brennan singing the Digimon theme is something I wasn't aware I needed lmao
Digimon got referenced to much behind the scenes
Do you see the links for the charity they are talking about?
I saw links in the Gmail i got from roll20 that led me to the video
Chaaaange into digi tull cham pyuns tooooo save the digi tul WHURL
I read this before watching and thought he would sing "Butterfly"...
I love that Brennan's character voice for this is just undead Gilear Faeth.
When one thinks it over, is yoghurt not merely undead milk?
@@mixmastermind this comment deserves more likes
Could Gilear be one of his reincarnation?
Really? The only thing I could think of when listening to him was of how similar Abraham was to Arthur Aegfot
Mad scientist necromancer who constantly kills himself and is still less depressing than Gilear
Love that Brennan's half-dead old man warlock character is only 34 🤣
"I know, I look great for my age."
"No! You don't!"
He looks like he forgot an extra 0
Maybe he’s only counting the time he’s been alive?
@@GusCraft460 😂😂 good theory that would explain a lot
For anyone who has read In The Company of Ogres, his character is basically Never-Dead Ned, which is hilarious
"I promise to kill you later."
"You're a good friend"
This is too good
"The potato was inside you the whole time." - Brennan Lee Mulligan
As a Ukrainian, I felt that.
Ukrainians unite!
Oof sorry man
That sounds like some ones kink for sure
Hope you're safe. Potato power!
Glory to Ukraine
I love how Brennan throws out like five options for Abraham Mehermblur's title and when Aabria calls out "citizen doctor" and laughs at it, he locks in
While I completely love their group name, i feel like "dead hot chili feathers" was a missed oportunity (?
Very underrated comment, I love this so much 😂
So if Abraham's life flashes before his eyes every time he dies, wouldn't that mean his previous deaths flash before his eyes too? If so, do those previous flashes also flash before his eyes? If so, then he's fucking right about being reborn bringing knowledge and enlightenment. Every time he dies, the amount of lifetimes he's lived grows exponentially. After dying 10 times, he'll have lived 65 full life times.
holy fucking shit.
oooooo
maybe... maybe that's why he looks so old?
The time between deaths aren't super long, so it wouldn't be full lives, he's in his mid 30's, so he'd probably only have "lived" for a few hundred years if he's died 10 times.
@@hopelesslydull7588 My guess is that time flows differently inside The In-between realm of death. Or at least that makes sense in my mind
The content warnings for this are so fucking funny because you read the 'suicide' 'self-harm' 'body horror' mixed with the 'sexual themes' 'comedic death' and you're like 'what the fuck is going on here' and then its just mehermblur running headfirst into the nearest opportunity for death as fast as his little undead legs can carry him while everyone else is too busy being horny in the bg to get anything done efficiently
There is no more relatable DM move then screaming, "everyone Shut up! I'm trying to start the game!," at the party
I need Brennan to be a player more, dear God please, I love how all out he goes on his characters
I liked his appearance in the 6 episodes for dndbeyond
Does the name Evan Kelmp ring a bell? "These next 3 minutes are going to be very important for you..." I love seeing him as a player almost as much as a DM.
@@TSGypside Evan Kelmp...that name just takes your whole mouth to say.
@@TSGypside when I noticed the premisse was that of a magical academy, I half expected him to replay Evan just to mess with Aabria
@@daniellins4114 I was hoping he would. You can tell he loves messing with whoever is DM'ing a game he plays. It's his little taste of being on the other side of the screen. He's going to enjoy himself.
I like the fact that brennan's character in this somehow has a lower AC than Gilear does in fantasy high lmao just shows how badly he wants to die.
This was the most realistic beginning of a dnd session I've ever seen. 6 minutes of straight chaotic bullshit that delighted me to the very core. VERY excited about this group- and this game!!!
They would have never started the game if the camera's weren't there ha
It could only be more realistic if it took 2 hours to start the game lmao
"Everyone shut up I'm trying to start the game!"
🤣
Does anyone know what she said that was bleeped?
@@elguapo1690 I also wanna know!
I must know what heinous daddy description she gave to voluntarily yest herself
So my friends and I are playing in Strixhaven and our DM added Abraham and Paddles to the npc casting. Abraham is one of the professors and there’s another who’s a reaper and also a professor. every time Abraham dies the other professor runs out of his class with his scythe and then comes back a few seconds later despondent when Abraham is successfully revived. It’s pretty great!
“Are you a secret dragon” is the new “when I was backpacking across Western Europe”
Blue Dragonborn is the new Ken Adams😂
More real play shows need to take a cue from Carlos editing wise. This was like we skipped the original ep and went straight to the "D&D Strixhaven being chaotic for two hours and fifty-three minutes" fan video, and I'm so here for that. I genuinely would love to see a whole season of this
the editing and effects are brilliant 💝✨🌟
they add so much and don't overshadow the players
As I watch more and more campaign videos with Brennan and Aabria, I am finding that regardless of who else is at the table, if those 2 are together, everything from start to finish is just going to be glorious chaos
have you seen “The Seven” from Dimension 20? brilliant chaos & comedy & drama
@@MorganBondelid not yet because i can't currently afford a dropout tv sub
@@dark_neverland when you can it's worth it (and doesnt tie you into a subscription length, so can stop and start it as funds allow-which is what I've been doing) a court of fey and flowers is also a good Dimension 20 with Aabria GMing and Brennan playing
@@carliegriffiths6290 I also want to add Misfits and Magic, also on Dropout!
Aabria has mastered the skill of sculpting brennans magic chaos into some bizarre borderline orderly art
The little drawing of Aabria after introductions is amazing.
That might have been my favorite part, the expression on the drawn face was perfection 😂
Aabria always seems so well put together in the games she DMs. Watching her and the PCs be unhinged and feral is kinda nice. It gives me hope for myself and my players
In the latter part of the first exu series she dm'd for critical role the chaos of the cast draws her in, and it's a great way to see that process shift.
"If I can be my own patron, you can be your own union"
I don't know why, but that made me laugh way too much. Also - absolutely the energy I need for 2023.
as a grown man who went through continuing ed at a big ten uni, I love the old weird guy representation of Abraham; we love you my old weird virgin, way to lift up the little guys and advocate for unionization rights!
Brennan continuing his tradition of naming his character to make Aabria, specifically, lose her shit
Abraham sure is the healthiest boy hp-wise for the man who is consistently the Most Not Okay
Also, it kills me that 4/6 content warnings in the intro are DEFINITELY because of Brennan's character.
This is the greatest first 6 minutes of a D&D livestream ever.
💯
Seriously is there any way they could just like loop the first 6 minutes of this for like 10 hours
🔥💥🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃
There’s so much raw, wonderful chaos.
I never knew how much I needed Brennan and Mica in a game together.
Their respective chaotic energies mix so well.
Imagine Abraham meeting Laudna... the creepy hilarious possibilities 🤣 😆 😂
"So, how many times have you died?" "Just once, I think..." "Oh... Paddles, maybe don't write that down." "Paddles?! Oh, lovely, he should meet Pate!"
@@IceMetalPunk omg I forgot about Patė and Paddles! I love it!
"Who did you pact with?" "The most powerful being beyond the veil I could find...MYSELF!"
@@Notbatman374 "That sounds a lot better than D, actually... I wonder if I can do some sort of patron exchange program?"
Real talk: Could Paddles animate Pâté?
I think this is the most chaotic actual play table I've ever seen, and I'm only 5 minutes in.
*I love it*
Brennan is chaotic enough on his own, but somehow, whenever he and Aabria are in the same game, the chaos threshold becomes surpassed by so much that it collapses into a chaotic black hole of chaos.
I made 3:38 before realizing how chaotic this will be.
Imagine brennen, abria, and sam riegal all at the same table
@@chefjustin18ify I can't. My brain begins to consider such absolute insanity, and then immediately shuts down to protect myself from full mental implosion.
Brennan's new Dimension 20 game is OVERFLOWING with incredible chaos. I can't wait for every Thursday when the new episodes drop.
Aabria just casting Polymorph irl to become Lou Wilson for like 20 minutes as Tulk is incredible. I loved these Strixhaven games, amazing crew and cast and amazing job on the edit Carlos!
"You can tell meee, I'm also a dragon~"
I'm dead.
Why is it when Brennan makes a character in an Aabria game, he always has a mouthful of a surname? First it's Kelmp, now it's Mehermblur?!
The second he dropped his characters name the whole game fell apart.
@@carlosluna309 the Daddy Ending tease sure as hell didn't help get the train get back on the rails. I suspect the outtakes were just utter chaos?
Somehow Mehermblur rolls off the tongue better than Kelmp. 🤣
@@ryper9167 yep Kelp is just all tongue
Every time Brennan and Aabria are in a game together, it's like Brennan takes it as a personal challenge to be the most chaotic lump of chaos he can possibly be 😂
Brennan literally steals the show of every game he's in! How is he so insanely funny?
Stand up.
@@aFoolsMartyr All his improv work made him great at stand up as well
If you aren't a dropout subscriber, then you've missed K. P. Hobb, where the K. P. stands for Knickolas Pnackolas (the k and the p are both silent).
@@Tacobell1384 Umm, Actually, it's Knickolas Pnackleless Hob (according to the D20 wiki)
@@Z3DT fair but my comment was made before the wiki article was
Brennan has an amazing ability to craft characters that are fun to watch, must be fun to play, is completely capable of carrying the game but bows out to either do something awesome for another player or to kill the audience with his in character jokes.
I legitimately almost fell out of my chair when Abraham said very sweet and quietly please kill me
" Nope I would rather die" that had me laughing my ass off.
I love how they are suspected of setting the cafe on fire and they start the combat against the Mage hunters by flinging fire spells

I second this!
@@armando7682 Third!
The chucklefuckery is amazing
did you catch the second episode?
Aabria's imp voice is top notch! And I love the root vegetable detect magic scrying.
Brennan as a player is always a rare and tasty treat, but man, what a table.
“I don’t know if I would call you a virgin after what’s happened here right before my very eyes.” Well there is a reason the French call it la petite mort.
I love when Brennan plays in a game ... things go off the rails pretty quickly, generally even before the game starts.
It’s the power of the Lee Mulligan.
No one gonna talk about the absolute CHAOS of Brennan just throwing out a Junji Ito reference in the end without knowing what it is??? Also RIP Becca and Mica for peering into the abyss
PSA: The Spiral, or Uzumaki is a Japanese horror comic by Junji Ito (who is kinda known for the genre) that is REALLY popular for crazies into that stuff (it’s me. I’m crazies)
It's gonna be great to see him delve into that. He already has his weird bird facts.
Oh gosh thank you I missed the reference and the subtitles didn't help!
Only ever read the fault lines one and I’m good
Its honestly impressive that the crew automatically assumed he knew. He roleplayed enough that they just assumed he knew.
Can you give me a cryptic explanation of the plot that will intrigue me into reading it?

@@Daxthemonk I think we need some behind the scenes or outtakes videos…
Becca's yelp as those MtG cards went flying through the air. My only thought was "I sure hope those were all commons"
Me too!
That's a lotta Moxen!
My thought was that those had better be basic lands.
@@rhondacumbo7356 Ii wouldn't even wish that on basic lands, since they end up in most decks anyway. I was hoping they were the kind of trash commons you get in most booster packs, the ones that would only ever find play in a "fun" deck.
They're all Providences
As soon as Brennan mentioned Digimon, I was disappointed that Karina from Drawfee wasn't present because she would be hype as hell that he'd brought it up
Never has a face been more relatable than the fraction of a second we see Brendan's face (a loooong term DM) being able to ask another DM "what's your name" to a rando NPC.
Brennan, you cant just play Arthur Augefort as a character, he's...
Oh shit he is 🤣
I'm loving Mica and oh my gosh I didn't realize how much I missed Aabria's DMing since ExU!!
if you haven't seen Misfits & Magic, you're gonna wanna get on that ;)
Same!! It’s so lovely to see her style of total immersion plus playful antagonism with the players
I suggest watching The unleashed if you like Aabria's style, it was a show she did during the start of the pandemic with cast members from her other show Kollok 1991
A Court of Fey and Flowers. Aabria's best work, best reason to subscribe to Dropout :)
I love when Aabria makes the PCs make trades for things that would otherwise be impossible. Beastbond would never work, they're not even beasts... But then she ignores that, focuses on the INT, and then creates this INCREDIBLE moment... for [rules lawyers] like me, it really pushes me to grow as a player & DM... LOVE IT
And this is why I like Aabria so much as a DM, she uses the rules to tell the narrative instead of forcing the narrative into the DnD ruleset. If the DnD Rules doesn't facilitate the narrative, she kicks it to the curve. She puts narrative and collaborating story first and rules second and that's the DM style I love. Great session today.
If you like this kind of DM'ing, try the Dungeon World RPG! Its a much simpler system with less focus on rules and more on collaborative storytelling. I think it sucks that D&D gets all the attention when there are so many good rpg systems out there that would fit people playstyles so much better.
curb
@@BlueMadness666666 Why would you think the attention D&D gets sucks when it its popularity is largely responsible for the tabletop rpg revolution of the last decade?
I mean I like Dungeon World just fine, but it's not hard to understand that its greater reliance on freeform roleplay feels less like a game and more like narrative contrivance, i.e. making anything up. Most people like having clearly defined actions and abilities so they know the limit of what they can and can't do, as opposed to having choice overload when those things are left vague and undefined.
It feels like she laces the rule of cool In her stories
I stand with Brennan and the dozen or so others who still love and remember Digimon 😂
I'm gonna make Citizen Doctor Murhermblur a NPC in my Strixhaven campaign.
Why just Stryxhaven?
@@laoxep valid point.
love that Brennan is trying to find a true dragon while in an illusion which is pointless as dragons have true sight and see through illusions
The VERY last second, they caught him. GUILTY!
"Brennan's eating! Brennan's eating brennan's eating Brennan's eating!"
obviously an OOC action for his meta-race
I absolutely NEED Aabria and Brennan to be at a table together always
Cut to, one year later: "my friend, have you discovered Worlds Beyond Number yet?"
Given the amount of stuff they let fly, I am DYING to know what they had to censor.
I’m glad that Brennan gets more opportunities to be a player nowadays
I love Brennan so much. He is the kind of player and GM that I resonate with. Aabria is also way up there. She is a true fan of the malleable Storyteller.
Wait what did Aabria actually say under those bleeps I need to know 😂😂
Lmao "are you a secret dragon" really felt like "are you secretly in drag" 😂😂 I loved that
"Please come help... Senbarca" glad that didn't get misconstrued lmfao
The last second of this video is everything.
Cheese!
2:40:40 and onward gives me absolute chills
Aabria's storytelling style is so well honed and her focus on creating atmosphere is intensely moving.
I love when DM's can do good voices and make clever puzzles, but there is something separate and glorious in being able to cut to the heart of your PCs and make the moment land.
Her word choice and honor to the narrative is something I deeply admire as a budding DM. Aabria has a direct line to both my tear ducts and deepest belly laughs.
Thank you for making this and major props to the editing and sound design.
I mean this with the utmost respect: I'm lifting some of this for my own future Strixhaven game.
She kills it
After this and Misfits, I can’t wait for a game when things are reversed and Aabria gets to PC in one of Brennan’s games
The Seven - fantasy high spin-off has Aabria as a player with Brennan DM
And now the wonderful trip of EXU Calamity
and dimension 20's leviathan!!! aabria has played in a lot of brennan's stuff!!!!!
"No one doesn't not do magic all the time.." Thank you for this quote, Aabria! I know I'm overjoyed to live in a world where 'no one doesn't not' play d&d all the time :)
It's a beautiful thing, watching Aabria Iyengar tell a story. Damn
This feels like Arthur Aegfort the early years
The intro to this game is some crazy energy… i was not prepared nor aware of how much I needed Booger Lee Mulligan singing the digimon theme song in baritone
The "Guilty" on Brennan at the very very very end made me cry laughing
Brennan was sneaking food during the game, and I saw that clip in post and didn't know what to do with it, so I used it as the end credit sign off lol
Man, every time you put GMs into a game, they blow the doors off.
This was all very good, but honestly the unison yell of "NO ONE KNOWS DIGIMON!!" really set the tone early on.
"Stage fright is the mind killer" - Becca Scott
Aabria’s voices are as amazing as ever! Paddles!
Thoroughly enjoying the edits, especially the closeups for comedic value they always make me laugh! The set is really chill too love having the map behind aabria!
Not even 5 minutes into this, and I'm already loving the chaos emanating from everyone at this table
The 1st 6 minutes of this one shot is worth every donation. And it only gets better after that.
Shout out the editors cause they were having some fun with this one
Okay, 1000% won me over with Digimon. Brennan is now my new favorite person.
I've been hunting this down since I missed the live event, SO GLAD IT'S HERE, thank lawd for the christmas miracle of the daddy ending.
Everyone was so great, I could watch a whole campaign of the shenanigans happening with this cast.
I’m 100% putting in Abraham as one of my NPC teachers for the Strixhaven campaign I’m going to run
“Grandfather of necrotics” “his own patron” paddles as a TA, so much to work with 👌
God damn it... just when I thought Evan Kelmp was my favorite character, Brennan brings out another weird and amazing creation. How the hell does he do that?!
The most incredible name they spelled it on screen
This combo of ppl is the sweet spot and dream team of chaotic greatness. I especially love the combo of Aabria + Becca + Brennan.
“I’m not hitting on you I’m an old virgin.”
I don’t know what that means but it sure worked.
Aabria is my fave DM, especially with Brennan as a character, so good
Youthful students and their Citizen Doctor friend taking a sabbatical at Strixhaven.
I love that Brennan just goes full crazy person
Now I really want to see a crossover/tournament arc with Misfits and Magic and/or Arther Aguefort’s Adventuring Academy like a tri-wizard school tournament. Or even whatever magical academy equivalent that can be found in Exandria Unlimited (honestly the chaos birthed by EXU’s Opal, and any PC created by Emily and Brendan as Evan, Abraham, or any of his various NPC’s) needs to happen at some point. Maybe bring in Laura Bailey or Sam Reigel for additional M9/VM cameos and make it a proper bracketed PvP tournament with level adjusted Jester or Scanlan.
Opal Fearne Dariax Abraham Jester Nott/Scanlan Chetney and Whitney Jammer in a 8 man bracket DM'd by Aabria🙏🏽
Not even 3 and a half minutes in and it's already enough chaos for a whole week. I've been waiting soooo long for this video.
Brennan may be Mr. Bird Facts, but Aabria is Queen of Pi
I think "Kelmp" put a terrible idea in Brennan's brain about what his characters' names should sound like, and now he's a monster and he needs therapy to get it out 😂 "Merhermblur" though? 😂
The whole Sending moment really gave me Critical Role Jester/Travis vibes, and all I could think was, "....are you pooping?" 😂
Yes! I was wondering if someone else caught that, lol. 😂😂😂
Brennen embodies chaotic neutral to his very core in EVERY character he plays and its beautiful
Why is brennen holding that pencil like if all 5 finger tips aren't touching it its going to fly away?
Also I love all of this.
